• DO Swapo Party coordinators know that we have brains and we know what is wrong or right. How can they tell us not to take part in something we will benefit from? Can we come and live in your houses? • CITY of Windhoek councillors and management, shape up or ship out. Do not hide behind laws and regulations. Get moving fast on land delivery to low and middle-income citizens or you will have a revolution coming faster than you can run from it! • SOME police officers in Grootfontein give us reason to believe they are working with criminals to rob people on the farms and in Grootfontein. Residents, be alert! • FNB Usakos, we are tired of your deductions with no reason. You deduct about N$500 from someone's account, if it was you how would you feel? We want to know where that money is going? We want our money back. NANGOLO Mbumba, shame on you! Leave Job Amupanda alone. He did not insult the nation like you did. Do you think we forgot what you said last year at the Sam Nujoma Stadium?
